Let mtthr man praise thee and
not thine own mouth; a stranger and
not thine own lips." says an ancient
proverb : which is eusler to obey than
It has been sometimes, for the air Is
resonant with ndulntlon for this coun
try and its people praises for its be
nevolence, energy, Idealism, army and
navy.
We have exulted in the praise be
stowed upon the boys in khaki for their
chivalry toward women, their gentle
ness to little children, their high mo
rale amid great temptations, and
their courage In battle. But these vir
tues were nil exhibited to friends and
allies.
Now comes, however, a testimony to
their behavior toward their enemies,
which ought, we think, to give us even
! -Especial praise." says a dispatch
' from Amsterdam, "was given the
! American troops of occupation by a
' representative of the r.erlin foreign
ministry on his return from Treves.
-The judgment of all Germans, such j
: as shopkeepers, hotel keepers and men
on the street. Is that the behavior of
' the Americans Is blameless."
-Blameless!" "Sans neur et sans re- ,
proche!"
We pity the man or woman who can ;
road that testimony without choking
up a little bit. One ought not to for-:
! get that these young Americans are
among a ieople whom tney nave
learned to hate. If there has been one ,
thing above all others upon which they j
universally agreed, it was loathing and ,
horror for German frightfulness. In all
their letters home they wrote of their j
Irrepressible dread that the war might ;
be stopped in some way before they
had taken vengeance upon the Huns j
.w- lectin i conduct toward
wounded men and helpless women and ,
children.
And now they are moving across the j
country of their hated foes as conquer-j
ors ! On every highway and at eTery j
street corner they see the men who ,
have perpetrated these nameless hor-1
rors. Those men are at their mercy, j
And yet. upon the testimony of these
brutes themselves, "their behavior is ;
hlnmeless." I
We read that they march through
these German cities grim and silent;
their faces white and their Jaws set;
looking neither to the right hand nor
to the left ; self-contained ana seu
controlled. These are the men. re
